Don’t Sacrifice Fashion for Safety Munchkin Safety Gates

Last week I had the opportunity to sit in on a webinar with Munchkin’s communication manager Jennifer Campana and Debra Holtzman, author of The Safe Baby and world renowned child safety expert about the launch of Munchkin’s new safety gates and keeping your baby safe. Munchkin is hoping to help families keep the fashion and design in their home décor while adding safety for their children and dogs. Yes, Munchkin is going to market the same gates to dog owners just by putting them in a different box. I think it’s a genius marketing plan, because whenever we’ve used a gate for our dog we always just used the baby gates, but dog owners won’t think to go to the baby section to find a gate will they? I didn’t! In fact, before I had kids I thought the best pet solution was to lock them in the bathroom while I was gone.

The new design in the Safety gates comes from the acquisition of The United Kingdom’s number one baby safety brand Lindam. It is through this partnership, that Munchkin has brought a line of top-selling safety gates to the US market, enabling parents to choose both safe and stylish options for their homes. Munchkin safety gates are built to the highest quality standards and rigorously tested to meet or exceed both U.S. and European safety standards. Munchkin infant safety gates are aesthetically pleasing and come in a wide range of measurements, price points, styles and mounting types.

In a report from Safe Kids USA and Munchkin, it was reported that more than half of all nonfatal injuries in children are from falls, many of these falls involve unprotected stairways. My son, is almost three, he’ll be 3 in one month from now and he still falls down the stairs, I even had to take him to the emergency room last month because he landed on one of his toys that he had in his hands has he fell down the stairs. You can’t ever be too careful when it comes to your kids, so I urge you to take proper precautions for your own children. For stairs, it is recommended that you have a gate at the bottom of the stairs and at the top of the stairs.

Munchkin will select a weekly Facebook winner (from Feb. 15 – May 15) to win a safety gate and $50 gift card to redo their nursery. One grand-prize winner will also receive a nursery set from Munchkin (valued at $530) and a $250 American Express gift card to help with their design. A second winner will receive a $250 American Express gift card to help decorate their child’s room. To Enter to win one of these great prizes in the Protect Your Baby’s Every Move contest upload a funny picture or video of your baby’s first steps, baby dancing or moving.

OMG the numi gate is cool. I love that it’s easy to install, practical since it can be installed on uneven doorposts and it can easily be removed and slid back into place when the children aren’t around

I have been looking for a gate since early fall and I really like the DECO! I love the rich wood look coupled with the black! (we have a wide doorway from living room to kitchen and other swing gates dont work for us)

I love the Munchkin Loft.. i like the dark wood one… i have one but i have a baby girl coming in may and I need another gate to keep my 15 month old from going into her room. so this would be great to win… FB fan Robert Mcneight.. thanks

The easy to close in white. We have the worst baby gates up now. Fortunately, we don’t use them for babies but rather for our dogs. Having a deaf dog… it makes lives easier so that she can’t escape when the pizza guy visits.
Thanks for the chance!
